Nor would it cause near so much suffering, as echo nerve centres would become paralyzed and feeling would die. • But stone in the bladder is alarmingly common. Thousands suffer the most hor- rible tortures from it. Thousands die from it. And yet it is very easily cured. There ; is a remedy-Dadd's Kidney Pills -that cures it quickly, easily and painlessly. In proal of this statement, it is 'ewes-, eery only to quote the following letter, written by Madame Campaane, of 167 St. urban street: "I have suffered with stone in the blad- der, and though I underwent different treatments, and used various remedies, I got no relief till 1 took Dodd's Kidney Pills. Five boxes removed the stone, built up ivy health, strength and flesh, and lade a new woman of me." ISodd's Kidney Pills are a positive cure for stone in the bladder and every other form of Kidney Disease. Always on Hand. -Mr. Thomas H. Porter, Lntver Ireland, P.

Tho Medical Press and Circular seems to hint that the latest fashionable wicked- ness is to take one's tea in the form of cigarettes. Judging, however, from what our medical contemporary says of the vice, it hardly seems likely to become general. The first sensation, it appears, though pe- culiar, is not as unpleasant as might be supposed, but this condition of qualified beatitude docs not last long. Then conies "a thickening of the head and a disposi- tion to take hold of something or to sit down." If the novice perseveres, he or she may be next rewarded with a feeling of exhilaration, intense, but of very brief duration. But the after effects, our contemporary solemnly avers, aro too dreadful for con- templation even by a medical commenta- tor, and it takes many hours before the beginner even begins to revive. A dust- pan and a, broom seem to bo the only things then required for removing the smoker. Hard on the Author. I'iattn214.; tura Good 'IV itnr. :lir.
